Bart was sitting on the couch. He turned to the news and watched solemnly. Kent Brockman said happily "Now we have good news for the kids out there, "The Krusty The Clown" show will be having a marathon. This is great for all of you kids out there and for all of you recovering alcoholics too.
Barney who was watching the news said "If he makes one more remark about us people I'm gonna kill someone".
Bart shrugged and said unenthusiastically, "Like I care". He then thought of Lisa. He knew that she was going to have her operation to fix messed up parts in her legs. Bart shook his head and the heard Marge call to him from the kitchen, "Bart, me and your father are about to go to the hospital to see Lisa. Come on get on your stuff".
Bart sat up straight and answered "No mom. She wouldn't want to see me. I don't want to see her either. Just go". Marge said confused "What is it honey, does your leg still hurt". Bart answered upset "Yes mom, me, my broken leg and cast are fine. Okay"! Homer said excited "Okay let's go Marge"! He then whispered slyly to Marge "Let's not let this opportunity slip".
Homer ran out happily. Marge shook her head and said, "Okay honey we'll be back in an hour or two. If your aunts call tell them that Maggie's allergic to the smell of perfume. Then again they'd have to have a truckload to really make her get wozzy".
Patty and Selma watched Maggie shivering on the table. Patty said to Maggie almost scared "What's wrong Mags"? Maggie sniffed and then stopped moving.
Homer and Marge walked out and Homer said loudly "Woohoo"! Bart then turned back to the T.V. and took a long inhale. Kent Brockman was out side now chasing a man "Come back here. What the hell is wrong with you"? Kent stopped and began panting. He then looked at the camera and said out of breath "Wow, He must be a recovering alcoholic being so scared to talk about the new tax hike". Bart then heard outside someone scream and Barney say, "You see what you made me do"!
Marge and Homer arrived by Lisa's bedside in her hospital room. Homer said looking at the hospital food by Lisa "You better not eat that crap. It looks like Betty Crocker". Lisa nodded and said weakly "Yah I know, the nurse warned me" Homer said picking it up over the trash can "So uh, your not gonna eat it right"? Marge answered Homer upset "Just eat it already"! Homer sat down and began eating.
Marge looked at Lisa and asked her worried "Are you ready for the surgery honey" Lisa nodded. Homer leaned over her and looked at her smiling. Lisa said upset looking back at him "That was the last one dad". Homer said sitting down a little sad "Oh". Lisa looked around and asked Marge confused "Where's Bart"? Marge said to Lisa kind of confused her self "I think he was scared, but he had no reason to be though." Lisa nodded and took a deep breath. Dr. Hibbert came in and said to Marge "Well I guess it's time to do the surgery. I'd rather not have people in the room other then me, my team of doctors, and my wife of course. You know she makes the best lemonade that you have ever-tasted heh, heh, heh. But of course it doesn't have lemons, which is what really makes it taste good. Anywho, I suppose you two can come back tomorrow". Marge nodded and said sadly "Goodbye honey". Homer walked out and said to her stuffing himself with food "Bye, Lisa". Marge walked out the door and Lisa said to her quickly "Wait mom" Marge looked back in. Lisa said to her fiddling her fingers "Well could you tell Bart that I forgive him. I know that you probably don't understand but please just do it for me mom". Marge nodded and closed the door.
Dr. Hibbert stood up and said looking at Lisa "I think that this qualifies for twenty-nine lollipops heh, heh, heh".
